When the three-day period came, Qi Feng did not come as promised, and instead of him, it was Qi Xinchen who and Li Shuyu did not like each other's eyes, and the two of them looked at each other in Zixiao Palace, and their faces were not very good-looking.

Especially Qi Xinchen, since the last time he had a verbal battle with Li Shuyu in Qingpuhe, he has been a little afraid of this vicious little fox. But he had no choice but to send the message to Qi Feng to explain to him, he had never dared to disobey his eldest brother, so he had to be prepared to be sneered at, and came to Zixiao Palace hard.

"My brother asked me to pass on the news, the clan has been busy recently, and the three-day appointment has been postponed, and he will come to see you as soon as possible after he is done. Qi Xinchen took out a delicate jade box from his sleeve and handed it to Li Shuyu, and said dryly: "And this, he asked me to deliver it to you personally." ”

Li Shuyu was eating, and when he saw Qi Xinchen appear at the gate of the courtyard, he lost his appetite instantly, and was thinking about whether he knew that he was going to Qishan to come over to warn, but when he heard him say that he was going to speak for Qi Feng, he put away his somewhat obvious hostility, took the jade box, got up and poured him a cup of tea, and said politely: "Hard work, drink tea." ”

Qi Xinchen didn't want to brush off her kindness, so after hesitating for a while, he sat down obediently, and said with some embarrassment: "Thank you." ”

"That ......" Li Shuyu tapped his index finger on the teacup uneasily, and said thoughtfully, "Ah Feng is really just busy with affairs, and the elders of the Pilgrimage Palace didn't embarrass him?"

Seeing that she was worried, Qi Xinchen wanted to intimidate her a few words in retaliation, but after thinking that what she said would most likely reach Qi Feng's ears in the future, she put away her dangerous caution and chose to tell the truth.

"It is indeed too busy, and the sleeveless things cannot be done, and the anger of the Qishan people has not been dispersed for a long time, and in order to appease the people, my uncle has advanced the fire ceremony that should be held next year. Qi Xinchen took a sip of tea, and tasted that the tea was the core of the Suzaku that was a specialty of Qishan, and he couldn't help but feel sore and jealous, and secretly condemned Qi Feng's partiality in his heart.

The Vermilion Bird is a specialty of Qishan, which was planted on the top of Qishan after the Phoenix ancestors melted the tea seeds into the Vermilion Bird eggs, and this tea is harvested once every 30 years like the sunburst fruit, so only the patriarch and the senior elders can enjoy it. Qi Xinchen had cheekily begged Qi Feng several times before, but he was fooled by Qi Feng four or two thousand catties, but he didn't expect him to be so generous to Li Shuyu, and he was willing to give the top tea leaves of the Three Realms to a big old man who didn't understand tea at all.

Li Shuyu didn't know what a terrible thing it was to take top tea to eat, she didn't understand tea, and all she drank before was coarse tea that was asked for by the soldiers of Nantianmen, and Qi Feng drank it once when she came to her, and she was disgusted on the spot. The next time he came, he personally brought tea and asked Li Shuyu to return the coarse tea to where it came from, and not to continue to spoil his golden stomach.

"I heard that the fire ceremony is the coming-of-age ceremony of the Feng clan, and the phoenixes in the clan who have undergone this ritual have to jump into the volcano. Lishu Yu couldn't help but get goosebumps just thinking about it, she rubbed her arms and asked tentatively, "You skip too?"

This question just poked Qi Xinchen's sore spot, he didn't just skip it, he almost couldn't get out, but he wouldn't let Li Shuyu know about this shameful experience.

"Naturally. He cleared his throat a little embarrassed, and saw that Li Shuyu had a posture of questioning, so he hurriedly added: "But this year's fire ceremony is more special, not to jump the volcano, but to cause the sky to fire." ”

When she returned to the Heavenly Palace and was forcibly taken to no man's land by Huan Yi, Huan Yi had told her that the fire ceremony of Qi Feng and Qi Huang was held by the patriarch Qi Kuan to burn and cultivate to lead the heavenly fire. It is an extremely luxurious thing to use cultivation as firewood, so the phoenix that can carry the heavenly fire is equivalent to nirvana, and the cultivation realm can be upgraded several levels in a row, which is no less than a grand ceremony for those phoenixes with excellent talents.

"It is worthy of being the patriarch of Qishan, and his cultivation is so profound. Li Shuyu sincerely admired: "Not every ancient god can be used as firewood for Tianhuo twice. ”

Hearing her say this, Qi Xinchen couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and said funny: "What twice, this time it was not my uncle who caused the fire, it was my brother." ”

The admiration on Li Shuyu's face instantly shattered, replaced by intense shock and worry.

"Ah Feng?!"

She "rubbed" and stood up, obviously unable to accept the news, and paced back and forth several times anxiously in the yard before asking Qi Xinchen uneasily: "How long will the fire burn, how much will it burn, how to stop, what if it can't be stopped?"

Qi Xinchen waited for her to finish asking a series of questions, and then raised his hand to signal her to be calm, and said seriously: "Little fox, let me give you an analogy, if your cultivation is a wheat straw, then the brother's cultivation is ten thousand hectares of wheat fields, you are touched by fire and ashes, and it is not a problem for him to burn for three days and three nights." ”

Li Shuyu, who touched the fire and turned ashes, instantly blackened his face.

Qi Xinchen also received the shock to her, stared at her and said solemnly: "Little fox, this is not just a matter of triggering the heavenly fire, the Feng clan has always been the patriarch who presides over the fire ceremony, do you know what it means for the elder brother to attract the heavenly fire this time?"

It means that the Feng clan will usher in a new patriarch after this fire ceremony.

Li Shuyu's heart was like a lead stone, and it sank into the vast sea of ice in an instant.

"I'm not against you being with your brother, it's good that he has someone he likes, and I'm happy for him. There was regret in Qi Xinchen's eyes, and he ignored Li Shuyu's resistant eyes, and continued: "But little fox, you also have to understand that Qi Feng's lover can be an unknown little fox, but the wife of the patriarch of the Qishan Feng clan definitely can't." ”

"So what?" Li Shuyu smiled helplessly, "You're asking me to leave him?"

"If I let you leave, will you leave?" Qi Xinchen raised his eyebrows.

Li Shuyu sneered: "How is it possible." ”

Qi Xinchen spread his hands: "That's it, since you won't leave, why should I talk in vain." I say this just to remind you that if you really want to be with your brother, you have to suffer some grievances. ”

Li Shuyu was displeased: "What do you mean?"

"It means that if my brother still wants to take you back to Qishan after the fire ceremony, you'd better not go. It won't take long for the elder brother to marry the fairy who is the right person under the arrangement of the elders, but it doesn't matter, as long as he has you in his heart, he will definitely open another palace for you, just like the mother of the Queen of Heaven, who also lived in the Yunsuoxiu Palace built for her by the Eastern Dragon King. When you give birth to a son and a half daughter, the elders will not mind giving you a name for the sake of the child, and allow you to enter the pilgrimage palace as a side room, and then you can be with your brother for a long time. ”

Qi Xinchen was also a little helpless, he wasn't going to be a villain when he came today, but when he said that, he couldn't bear to watch Li Shuyu go to Qishan to touch nails or send him to death. Now the situation has changed, some people in Qishan have heard some rumors, even if Qi Feng is determined to give Li Shuyu a fair and honest name, he is also fearless with the identity of the auspicious three realms of the nine feathers and golden phoenix, but what about Li Shuyu?

Lishu Yu'an listened to him quietly, and suddenly asked, "If Afeng doesn't want to be this patriarch?"

Qi Xinchen was stunned: "What?"

"You're a brother when you open your mouth and shut up, but you don't know him at all. ”

Li Shuyu opened the jade box brought by Qi Xinchen, and sure enough, he saw a piece of golden curse fire jade lying inside, there was a fruit in the center of the jade, and there was a red point of light in the center of the fruit, which was obviously the phoenix blood that Qi Feng had dripped in advance. Qi Xinchen was also shocked when he saw the contents of the box, and said in disbelief: "Twin flowers!?"

Penglai Secret Realm Twin Flowers, ten plants bear one fruit, the fruit is sealed in ice jade, and it is divided into two halves after dripping into the blood of men and women, which is the marriage jade that the fairy family often uses as a token of the marriage contract, such as the pair of Qifeng and Luolin before. But the one sent by Qi Feng is different, this fruit is sealed in the golden spell fire jade, and the center is dripping with pure essence blood from the tip of the heart, this blood is condensed with a divine soul, and destroying it is like destroying the divine soul, Qi Feng is equivalent to putting half of his life in the hands of Li Shuyu.

If anyone loves you as life, how can they care about the vain name?

Qi Xinchen was a little out of strength, and he fell back on the stool, completely defeated by his brainless brother. But there is a faint envy in my heart, if I can meet someone who is willing to love with my life in this life, it is also a kind of happiness.

Li Shuyu stared at the fruit for a long time, her slender fingers carefully stroking back and forth on the surface of the fire jade, and her eyes were almost overflowing with emotion and tenderness. The next moment, she took off the ice sword hairpin and stabbed it to the chest without hesitation, but to her surprise, the hairpin was stopped by a divine force and was instantly bounced away.

"He's planning ahead. ”

Li Shuyu couldn't laugh or cry, it must have been the last time Qi Feng checked her wounds, lest she have the idea of saving people with heart-to-heart blood.

"You also want to repay Li for this kind of thing?!" Qi Xinchen realized what Li Shuyu was going to do, and immediately laughed angrily, and said angrily: "Even your small body dares to take the blood of your heart, I'm afraid that if the jade is formed, your life will be gone!"

"Then what do you say I will take!" Li Shuyu was a little aggrieved, "I don't have anything precious anymore." ”

"You just cut your finger and take two drops of blood. Qi Xinchen raised his fingers to recall the hairpin that was bounced off, pulled Lishuyu's white-skinned left hand and swiped it neatly on his index finger, and the bean-sized blood beads fell on the fire jade and instantly burst into a dazzling light, and after a while, the fire jade cracked, turning into two lotus-shaped red jade, and lying quietly in the clear jade box.

Qi Xinchen looked at these two pieces of marriage jade, and finally understood why Qi Feng had to ask him to run this trip in person, and hinted that he could sit for a while before going back.

"You must know the preciousness of this thing, and you must keep it close to you. ”

Qi Xinchen picked up another piece of marriage jade, got up and said resignedly: "The matter has come to this point, what you have to say just now is nonsense, since my brother has identified you, then I will also admit it." The road ahead is long and difficult, please advise me in the future, sister-in-law. ”
